Fellowship Place’s 2015 Annual Thanksgiving Luncheon Celebration on Nov. 24, a Huge Success!

Thanksgiving is a time to give thanks and to celebrate family and community.  We did just that “Fellowship” style on November 24.  Approximately 200 clients from all agency programs came together to enjoy good food, good music, and lots of laughter. A big thank you to our good neighbor Stop & Shop for providing gift baskets for the raffle, and to members of the agency’s Board of Directors & staff for organizing the event.  Most importantly, kudos to our in-house kitchen staff and Food Service interns for a delicious feast.
